I've been having chest pain for the last couple of weeks, and now it's changed to this burning feeling in my chest that's also affecting my throat and ears. I'm kind of worried about what could be causing this. Any ideas?

Sure, I came across my medical report and it mentions terms like "marginally enlarged", "diffusely increased echogenicity", and "small hypoechoic sol with irregular wall" in my liver. There's also something about "tiny cystic changes" and a similar "smaller sol" at the left lobe. I'm really anxious about what all of this means. Are these findings something to be concerned about, and what kind of follow-up or action should I take?

The ultrasound report suggests that you have two liver lesions: a 46mm x 25mm x 29mm hypoechoic solid mass with irregular walls and tiny cystic changes in the right lobe, and a smaller 21mm x 15mm x 19mm solid mass in the left lobe; these findings may indicate benign liver lesions, such as hemangiomas or focal nodular hyperplasia, but further evaluation, such as a contrast-enhanced CT or MRI scan, and consultation with a hepatologist or radiologist are necessary to determine the nature and significance of these lesions.

My dad, who is 58, had a fever about 9 days ago but got better after we took him to the doctor. But heres the thinghes had these really persistent hiccups for the last 7 days. At first, they just wouldn't stop. Weve been giving him coconut water and cold water which seems to help calm them down a bit, but they keep coming back. He's also on a light diet. We're worried about what this could mean. Is this something serious? Can you suggest any remedies or next steps?
